Some stuff

Over at Haikasoru, we are running a giveaway contest for Phantasm Japan. Our last anthology, The Future Is Japanese was nominated for the Locus Award, contained the eventual Hugo Award-winning short story "Mono No Aware", featured the Shirley Jackson Award-nominated novelette "The Indifference Engine", and had four different stories reprinted in four different Year's Best annual anthologies. Why not get in on this fantastical follow-up on the ground floor and play today? You just need to write a teeny essay about your favorite short story.

I have some classes coming up. For people in the Bay Area, my Writing Salon class starts Saturday. Still time to sign up! Tell people!

And in a mere two days, my online class begins. You don't even need to be in the same room with me! Pretty cool, eh?
